To me, it seems the circumstance of her already being on her back when he threw a barrage of punches at her is being extremely under-emphasized here. He didn't just slap her once.
Not to mention, but I'm sorry....having "bad words" thrown at you doesn't give anyone a right to lay their hands on another person. I know its difficult, and some people, more than others, are prone to fits of rage and retribution, but still....I don't think someone has the right to react that way, anymore than I think someone has the right to blow me up if I chose to draw a cartoon of Mohammad wearing lingerie and sportin' a gag-ball.
I suppose someone can react anyway they want when met with vile words, but you'll also likely have to deal with the assault charge.
